New Issue: RBC prices $3.75 million contingent coupon autocallables linked to GM, Mondelez

By Angela McDaniels

Tacoma, Wash., April 17 – Royal Bank of Canada priced $3.75 million of autocallable contingent coupon barrier notes due Oct. 18, 2017 linked to the lesser performing of the common stocks of General Motors Co. and Mondelez International, Inc., according to a 424B2 filing with the Securities and Exchange Commission.

Each quarter, the notes pay a contingent coupon at the rate of 12.5% per year if each stock closes at or above its trigger price, 80% of its initial price, on the observation date for that quarter.

The notes will be called at par if each stock closes at or above its initial share price on either quarterly observation date.

The payout at maturity will be par unless either stock finishes below its trigger price, in which case investors will receive a number of shares of the lesser-performing stock equal to $1,000 divided by its initial share price or, at the issuer’s option, an amount in cash equal to the value of those shares.

RBC Capital Markets, LLC is the underwriter.
